[BackupPC-users] BackupFilesExclude issue

2017-05-11 Thread Moorcroft, Mark (ARC-TS)[Analytical Mechanics Associates, INC.]
Using the 4.1.2 COPR on CentOS7. If I set the BackupFilesExclude in config.pl it will be overwritten the second I change any other setting. If I change the setting in the GUI it saves, but reverts to empty the next time any other setting is saved. 2017-05-11 16:29:05 tsadmin changed MaxOldPer

Unfortunately I’m not in that position or I would LOVE to. As of yet we don’t have cloud backup. Can’t wait to update 3.3.1 to 4.1. I plan to move my 3.x data directory aside and start it from scratch on 4.x. I’ll trash the old stuff in a month or so. ➢ If you're interested in a testing packa

Now that 4.1 is out is there an updated idea when the EPEL package hits for el7? I’m itching to see how much better my performance is running parallel over our 10G connection, and what saturates first. The net or the CPU. -- Contractor: AMA Incorporated Mark Moorcroft – Lead Admin ESTRAD

Re: [BackupPC-users] systemd init for version 4?

2017-03-14 Thread Moorcroft, Mark (ARC-TS)[Analytical Mechanics Associates, INC.]
No worries, I appreciate the efforts. The new version has two new dependencies, BackupPC-XS (a perl module) and rsync-bpc (a fork of rsync with the required modifications) The review requests can be found here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1432122 https://bugzilla.redhat

Do you have any target date in mind to have the epel package ready to update from 3.x to 4.x? So I can tell my boss. The current Fedora / EPEL package supplies a SystemD unit file but it uses type=oneshot which I don't agree with (although it works). I'm currently working on taking ov

I’m curious since el7 has been the current OS for a pretty long time why the “new” version of BackupPC defaults to init.d? I will probably wait for the epel package to appear before I upgrade. But I gave consideration to piecing together a 4.x install to replace 3.x, but locate things so when t

Personally, I have only one fundamental issue with BackuPC 3.x, that we rely upon to back up all of our linux clients (including a 3000 core cluster). The problem is that it replaces modern rsync with some ancient embedded version. If that one thing could be "patched" I would hardly care about

Any chance that BPC 4 has the same mail bug that BPC 3.x has? That bug seems to have been completely ignored. The original report I found was over 6 months ago. I posted my own remarks on Jan. 6th. http://www.backupcentral.com/phpBB2/two-way-mirrors-of-external-mailing-lists-3/backuppc-21/bug-i

I am also wondering just how "alpha" BPC 4.x actually is. It seems to have been 2 years since it was patched. That either means it's pretty stable or people who use it don't report to the lists. Or hardly anyone uses it. >Hi to all, >i would like to set up a new backup system based on BackuPC
